In Naruto's dream, Tonton the office pig became human. He woke up in a cold sweat.
Needless to say, his imagination had been working overtime to upset Naruto this bright and early Friday morning. So early, in fact, that Jiraiya hadn't even turned his throwback tunes on.
Still disoriented, Naruto took the opportunity to enjoy a non-rushed shower.
***
At the school gate, Naruto was reunited with his first friend. "Kiba! Long time no see!" The brunette threw an arm around Naruto's shoulder.
"Yeah, yesterday!"
The two laughed and yelled, as they always did, at stupid things the other said on their way inside the school building.
"And then, Shino was all like, 'No! I swear I had that lightning type!' ...And it was the 2009 limited edition! They don't even sell those anymore, haha."
Damn! Lucky kid, Itachi's little brother.
"Haha, yeah..."
Naruto was confident that his face would have given him away, if not for the unexpected interference by Shizune.
"Naruto, would you come with me real quick?"
"Yes! Yeah! On my way!" Naruto ducked out of Kiba's half-embrace. "See ya, dog breath."
Kiba mock-gasped. "Later, Uzumaki."
Vice Principal and student walked into the pristine building, quickly locating the main office. Naruto wondered what he was in for.
As Shizune prompted small talk, Naruto met eyes with the subject (object?) of his dreams.
He engaged Tonton in a silent staring match.
"Oink!" "Naruto?"
The two acknowledged Naruto at the same time, successfully throwing the blonde for a second.
"Um...the weather's good."
Shizune raised her brows and smiled in polite confusion. "I asked you if you were having a good day,"
"Oh. Yes..." Naruto's cheeks warmed to the exact color of the pig.
"Tsunade should be here any moment. It's important, don't worry, or we wouldn't have you out of class."
Take all the class time you need, Naruto thought honestly.
After a few minutes, in which Naruto pointedly avoided the omnipresent energy/gaze that was Tonton, the woman of the hour waltzed into the office.
"Good morning, you three."
It only bugged Naruto a little to have her acknowledge the animal in the room.
...Oh god, is everyone but me considered the animal in the room?
Naruto groaned. He wasn't used to all this thinking.
Wait,
"Naruto?"
"Miss Tsunade, what sorta hybrid are you?"
"Me? I'm human."
Naruto felt a weird sense of relief wash over him; he felt less lonely now.
"Wait. Is that allowed?"
